• The bench cutout should be made as per
cutout dimensions in Table 2 and Figure 5.
• Adjacent walls, cupboards and protection
for combustible materials: Ensure that the
appliance is installed in accordance with
AS/NZS 5601.1, or AS/NZS 5601.2 with regard
to clearances to combustible surfaces and
materials, and clearances to rangehoods and
exhaust fans.
To ensure clearances of 200mm from burners
to vertical combustible surfaces observe the
minimum distance requirements shown in
Figure 5.
Clearances to combustible surfaces may
be reduced if combustible surfaces are
protected in accordance with AS/NZS 5601.1,
or AS/NZS 5601.2.
• Barrier: A barrier must be installed to prevent
accidental contact with the cooktop base,
where the base of the cooktop is accessible
from below (i.e. Inside a cupboard, etc.).
A minimum clearance of 15mm must be
maintained between the base and the
barrier. This barrier may be made of any non-
combustible, rigid material.
Barrier protection is not necessary if the
product is installed above an underbench
oven or similar appliance and/or if the
cupboard construction is such that the
underside of the cooktop is not accessible.
• Ensure that there is an earthed power outlet
within 900mm of the rear left hand side of
the cooktop when installed. This should be
accessible at all times.
• A self-adhesive Foam Tape has been provided
to act as a sealing agent and is to be placed
around the edge of the hob underside. Ensure
that there are no gaps in the Foam Tape. Take
care to ensure that the seals meet without
overlapping. The thickness of this Foam Tape
is 3mm and the width is 10mm.
• Fit the pull down clamps supplied to
ensure that the cooktop cannot move
after installation. Refer to Figure 6 and the
instructions below.
• Remove any excess seal visible after
installation.
WARNING: Failure to x the cooktop to the
bench could result in loosening of the gas
connection through movement of the cooktop
and a gas leak may result.
Clamps and screws are supplied with each
cooktop. Fit the clamps as shown in Figure 6.
When benchtops are less than 35mm in
thickness, it may be necessary to t a spacer
between the benchtop and each clamp to ensure
clamps can be tightened suciently.
